I applied through university. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Sperry Rail (Edmonton, AB) in Jan 2024
Interview
Getting hired is simple. They fly you in for the interview and show you what they do. Training takes months in classes, then months with trainers in the field. You get hired, then they fly you out for class. Relocation from your current residence isn't needed. There are several tests and quizzes during training that an 80% or higher is required to continue. If you don't pass these, they will send you home.
